I liked Man of Steel, BvS UE, and LaLa Land. Does that up it to .0003?

I generally only compare a critic score to an audience score. If the critics hate it and the audience loves it, I know I will enjoy the movie. Its very rare that I agree with todays critics. Now, back in the 80's I generally trusted them.

I’d been excited to watch Denis Villanueva’s Arrival for nearly a year. It’s taken three different attempts and I just don’t like it. Yet, critics loved it. |

Just got back from the late show.
Thought it was every bit as good as any Marvel Movie that does not have the word Guardians in the title. The story was not the strongest, but it was just as good as Ragnarok, which no one seems to have an issue with. Villian was fine...good enough, and did not steal the show. Thought the chemistry was fantastic. It had the funny. Batman did take a step back, but I thought it was a necessary step...and I love Batman, but in this case it was the right call to have him take a step back so the others could shine. Really liked Aquaman--fresh take on the character and I am officially excited for the solo movie. With the right kind of marketing Aquaman could be DC's Iron Man-- a second tier comic book hero that is a great fit on the silver screen. Hopefully Warner re-considers and keeps the series going. I think it is moving in the right direction. Word of Mouth seems good on this, so I think it will have some legs and drop off less than BVS.

That is disappointing to hear. I have been wanting to see that for awhile but just have not fit in my schedule. I loved Blade Runner 2049, so I will probably check it anyway.

Definitely don't go on my word. Just because some didn't like it doesn't mean you won't.

Movie Critics and RT are fun to read, but at the end of the day, if I went by their ratings, I would have missed a lot of good movies.

You don't even have to find one with whom you agree. You just have to find one whose opinions are consistent. If you consistently enjoy movies a critic hates, that's as good as anything. |

Pretty cool he adopted the chiefs ...no idea why he's a fan. Him and Joe Mangenilo were at the playoffs game last year.
He's always wearing a chiefs hat too |

While you're looking at the Chiefs logo on his shirt, I'm staring at the huge f@#$ing dog next to him. That thing is massive!

He's probably buddies with Rob Riggle and Paul Rudd too.
